Seminar - Session 2: Documentary screening and discussion with Eulàlia Comas and Irene Jaume

27 February, 2019 - 18:00

If love is not only a reproductive force but also a productive one, what other economies can it produce? During the 1930s, Catalonia experienced a revolution in politics, in economics and in the organisation of life. On the strength of this legacy, what kind of transformation of the affects is being tested today in the cooperative economy and in ecofeminism?

The Latest European Revolution] tells the story of the management by the  of between 70% to 80% of firms in Catalonia in 1936.

Irene Jaume. An activist and bookseller, she is one of the worker-managers of the bookshop La Ciutat Invisible, where she also carries out communication tasks and researches aspects of cooperative culture.

Venue: 3rd Floor, Art Centre (inside the exhibition).
